Phra Lak-Phra Lam A Previous Life of the Buddha |
By dint of the divine power of Phra In,
the raft was carried to a landing-stage near the dwelling of Chao Laksi, a rishi. He
harbored and adopted Nang Sida. In no time, Nang Sida became a maiden of peerless beauty and the beloved of all the "one hundred and one" Muang far and wide. She was thought fit to be mated with none but a hero, who had sufficient prowess to offer her as a marriage gift. Chao Laksi declared to everybody that whoever could raise his magic bow and arrow, would be honoured with the hand of Nang Sida. |
When this news reached Phra Lak and Phra Lam in the kingdom of Chanthabouri Si Sattanak, the two brothers started for the rishi's dwelling, on their marvellous horse, named Manikap. |
